The CEO’s Dilemma

� Innovation isn’t enough– Apple’s Newton

– Microsoft’s Bob

– Segway

– Gateway

– Your favorite – now defunct – startup

� Boost innovation while maintaining balance and efficiency– Thoughtful vs. reckless innovation

– Disruption vs. continuity

Thinking Circa 1997

� It’s all about disruptive innovation

�Companies feel much more comfortable with sustaining technologies for existing markets

�Companies that do not invest in disruptive technologies fail

�Companies that lead in adopting disruptive technologies are new entrants, not incumbent leaders
